Re: Last Call: <draft-jabley-dnsext-eui48-eui64-rrtypes-03.txt> (Resource Records for EUI-48 and EUI-64 Addresses in the DNS) to Proposed Standard

2013-06-13 10:40:06
I am told that draft has been revved again in response to discussion on the list.

http://www.ietf.org/rfcdiff?url2=draft-jabley-dnsext-eui48-eui64-rrtypes-05

Please direct your attention to the security considerations section. If it turns out that informational documentation of the two RR-Type assignments remains controversial, I will likely withdraw my sponsorship of this draft.

Thanks
joel

I would direct the attention of the commentors to draft 04

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-jabley-dnsext-eui48-eui64-rrtypes-04.txt

Which addresses concerns expressed in IETF last call over the intended status.

It also incorporates edits proposed by John Klensin in his review.

Notes: from the author:

 - changed intended status to informational

- incorporation of John's suggestions in the Terminology section, to indicate that we're using 2119 keywords even though this is not a standards track document

- added a couple of sentences to the security considerations sections to underscore the fact that this document specifies optional mechanisms that people might well not use if privacy considerations dictate otherwise


The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits
final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the
ietf(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org mailing lists by 2013-06-17. Exceptionally, comments may be
sent to iesg(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org instead. In either case, please retain the
beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.

Abstract


    48-bit Extended Unique Identifiers (EUI-48) and 64-bit Extended
Unique Identifiers (EUI-64) are address formats specified by the IEEE
    for use in various layer-2 networks, e.g. ethernet.

    This document defines two new DNS resource record types, EUI48 and
    EUI64, for encoding ethernet addresses in the DNS.
